LOVE AND BULLETS: A comedy with a body count

Written by Jeffrey Gentile, this read is just simply funny. You'll want to read it. When a nightclub entertainer and a gangster take a battered teenager into their home and hearts, they become a family as real as any bound by blood, and “bringing up baby” gets a whole new meaning.

They’re the kind of family Norman Rockwell would paint if he were still alive – and doing acid.

MOB ADJACENT: A FAMILY MEMOIR

A remarkable book by Jeffrey Gentile and Michael Gentile, Jr. Based on a true story.

For them, "The Wonder Years" collides with "The Sopranos." Mobsters come to dinner, contract hits come with warning notices, and thieves deliver merchandise and people. How does something like that happen to an ordinary family?
